Ac (AP 22). Note that the striatal sections shown in (b) and (c) have different magnifications. Black arrows indicate key striatal regions receiving convergent projections from areas 9 and 46, 8A-FEF, SEF, PMdr and 24c. Yellow dotted line, areas 9 and rostral 46; dark yellow, caudal area 46; white, area 8A-FEF; green, SEF; blue-green dotted line, PMdr; grey, 24c. Scale bars, 2 mm
